Comments : I highly recommend Candy and Mandarin Study. She is a very professional yet fun and engaging tutor. In 10 lessons I feel like I have a good basic grasp of Mandarin and always look forward to the lessons each week. She also took the time to answer all of our questions and there wasn't anything that she couldn't explain. As a private group of 4 adults, we appreciated her attention to each of us individually and the way she catered for our varying abilities.

Comments : Candy is a patient, professional and knowledgeable tutor. Her lessons contain the right mix of practical speaking, grammar structures, and new words, which has greatly improved my Mandarin skills. I had a recent trip to Taiwan, to meet my in-laws who couldn't speak English. Due to the lessons I had with Candy, I found that i was able to have a reasonable conversation with them, something I wouldn't of been able to do six months prior. Candy is also fluent in English, and she is able to articulate ideas very well, so the lessons went smoothly. She is also very patient with my questions and my learning pace, and I strongly recommend Candy to anyone seeking to learn Mandarin.
